Chain tensioners for road frames?
 
I know, I know. I tried the "search" for this question but couldnt find exactly what I was looking for. I know a while back, someone ask about chain tensioners for road frames, ie vert drop outs, and someone made them. I even saw the pic in the post.

Now, Im trying to find them. Or get any info on them.

Anyone?

Thanks

The surley singulator works. I had one on my road bike for a while.

Well, Im thinking it was the type (and excuse me for not knowing the exact name of it) that just attachted to your drop outs and had a screw you tighten when you wanna tighten your chain.

This should answer almost all of your questions about converting your bike to SS.

Isn't a semi vert dropout kinda like being sorta pregnant? Do you mean semi horiz?

Just read your other thread. How's you're head, feeling better?

Isn't semi-vert kinda semi-horiz, by definition?
